Topic: IDEA: Personal Event Log (Read 12684 times)

Updated Description: I'd like a fast way to log a recurring event (that I am tracking) acutally happend. My thought is a Program or Firefox Custom Button that, when clicked, adds the date/time to a log file. Features that would be nice to have:1. Works with or without the log file (text or html) open in a Tab2. If log file can be html - record the selected event as an HTML table row.3. Indicate the event was added by sound and/or messageThe following enhancements would allow logging a few different recurring events...3. Button includes a dropdown with entries based on my own text/vars (eg Event Description 1, 2, 3, etc)4. Record the selected event as "Date/Time" plus "Event Description"5. Default button opens the html/text fileOriginal Post...

I'd like a fast way to log a recurring event. My thought is a tray icon that, when clicked, adds the date/time to a log file. My use of this app would be 2 record when something (that I am tracking) acutally happend. Features that would be nice to have:1. Indicate the onclick event by sound.2. Ability to assign a name to the mouseover popup3. Ability to assign my own (tray) icon4. Tiny memory footprint

If there are alternative ways to do this pls let me know... I don't use AutoHotKey so that is not an option for me. I'm on XP Pro. I use Firefox 2 - maybe a bookmarklet/extension could write the time to a txt file? I'll post a question about this option at www.custombuttons2.com

ability to set a text label from the tray, that would be used on subsequent log items. so it's always still just click to add a log item without any request for additional info, but you can change the label added to each log item when you desire.

use a more pleasing tone -- the system beep you use sounds like my bios beep warning me the cpu is about to explode from heat
